Course CLXXX - "Three-dimensional Partonic Structure of the Nucleon"
28 June - 8 July 2011
Directors: M. Anselmino (Università di Torino and INFN, Torino), H. Avakian (Jefferson Laboratory, Newport News)
Topics
- Partonic distributions, fragmentation functions and factorization in QCD - Collinear case
- Theory of Transverse Momentum Dependent partonic distributions (TMDs)
- Theory of Generalized Partonic Distributions (GPDs)
- Experimental methods in studies of hard scattering processes
- Extraction of TMDs and GPDs from data
- Analysis tools for azimuthal asymmetries
- Models for TMDs and numerical methods
- Future experiments
The School aims at giving a comprehensive and "active" introduction to the study of the 3-dimensional structure of protons and neutrons.
Lectures and seminars will focus on the conceptual theoretical ideas, the experimental techinques and the phenomenological interpretation of data.
Special lectures and tutorials will be dedicated to data analysis and model building, with the expected active partecipation of students.
